Urinary tract infections (UTI)

Urinary tract infections are caused by bacteria entering the bladder or urethra, causing symptoms such as frequent urination, burning during urination and abdominal pain. Diagnosis is made through urinalysis and treatment includes antibiotic treatment and preventive measures to avoid recurrence.

Prostate Bulking Management

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition that causes difficulty urinating, intermittent flow and frequent urination at night. Depending on the severity of symptoms, treatment may include medication, minimally invasive techniques or surgical repair.

Hyperactive Cyst Management

Overactive bladder is characterised by a sudden, intense need to urinate, frequent urination and possible incontinence. The treatment approach includes lifestyle changes, pelvic floor strengthening exercises, medication and advanced treatments such as neurostimulation.

Management of Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

Erectile dysfunction can have organic or psychogenic causes and significantly affects the quality of life of patients. Diagnosis involves laboratory and angiological tests, while treatment may include medication, injections, vacuum devices and, in severe cases, surgery.

Screening for Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is a common neoplasm in men, but early diagnosis significantly increases the chances of successful treatment. Screening includes PSA (prostate specific antigen) measurement, clinical examination and, if necessary, prostate biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.

Frequently asked questions

Symptoms include frequent urination, burning during urination, cloudy or smelly urine and pain in the lower abdomen. If the infection is accompanied by high fever, chills or back pain, immediate medical evaluation is required.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in older men due to hormonal changes. Treatment includes medication, minimally invasive techniques or, in severe cases, surgical removal of the prostate.

Kidney stones are formed due to the accumulation of minerals and substances in the urine. Treatment includes increased fluid consumption, medication and, in cases of large stones, extracorporeal lithotripsy or minimally invasive surgical techniques.

It is recommended that men start screening for prostate cancer at age 50, or earlier if there is a family history. Screening includes a PSA (prostate specific antigen) measurement and a prostate finger test.

Fertility in men can be affected by hormonal, genetic or environmental factors. Treatment may include lifestyle changes, medication, hormonal therapies or invasive techniques such as micro-reproductive surgery.
